Back in the day
today
would have been Friday.

How times change.

Weeks are getting longer
and
work's becoming harder
money's getting tighter and
there's nothing in the larder,

And it's Christmas or almost,
but who'll raise their glasses
and toast this year?
Einstein
though not a friend of mine
had it right

it's all relative
or put another way
what goes around comes around

a sound enough theory
from someone much
brighter than me.

I think it means that we're all connected
from the minuscule to the majestic

and if there is an in between
a hidden dream
that's connected too

but what do we do?

we go our separate ways
as if we alone
walked alone

well
all roads lead to Rome
perhaps
something said in jest

but Albert Einstein said it best
when he said
E=MC squared.
I think that those politicians will find
(when they take their heads out of their arses)
that there is no favourable future for mankind

there is only the vaccine
and
the ******* of how things used to be,

that lot in the House of Commons
shouldn't be put in charge of a
Wendy House never mind us.

I'd go fishin'
but
Brexit put a stop to that.

According to that lot at
Stratford Station,
Jesus will save me,
ha
he didn't save them from
getting soaked in the rain.
jib-jab jump over the slab
don't step on the cracks,

superstitions be like
if you pull a face and the wind changes
your face will stay like that forever,

some people seem to have been caught out by that one.

I don't believe in superstition
( touch wood )
everything can be explained.
A parting of the ways
which is like
a parting of the waves
although
Moses says,
it's not,

I tell him to take a tablet.
Dinner by candlelight
because the power was cut,

we could have gone skating
but the ice was too thin
so
on a show of hands
we decided to stay in.

and now it's this morning
which it wasn't last night,

oh
and it's Wednesday too,
just got to get through this
but
must go to the bathroom
and have a wash
first.
The sign read,

Vacant,
available for immediate possession,
another invitation?

The devils I know and to
the devil I go
asking for the keys.
